Title: How to train your child in speed reading? Post by: WINK to LEARN on April 09, 2009, 04:07:28 AM The best speed reading courses contain eye-tracking exercises and games that activate right brain function such as imaging and mass memory acquisition. In Makato Shichida's Child Academies, we'll find young children flipping through books at high speed, taking tests on the book's subject matter, and getting high test scores. Traditionally, such exercises are conducted in a classroom environment.
Stephen Christman’s, a pschologist at the University of Toledo, research has independently shown that such eye movements improve recall memory. Christman said that he first came up with the idea to look at the effects of eye movements on memory after learning that leftward eye movements activate the right brain hemisphere and that rightward movements activate the left hemisphere. He thought that horizontal eye movements might, therefore, improve memory by helping the hemispheres interact. Memory Magic: Follow That Dot computer game helps to strengthen eye-tracking, stimulate and activate right brain function such as imaging and mass memory acquisition. They also create strong connections between the right brain and the left brain's conscious recall function. In short, true speed reading is your ability to store the "image" of pages or blocks of text through your right brain mind, and later be able to recall the information from those pages through your conscious left brain mind. Strengthening Our Eye Muscles To strengthen our eye muscles, we want use their unique eye-tracking exercises and games. They strengthen and expand the muscles used for vertical, horizontal, diagonal, global and field of vision. When we strengthen our eye muscles in this way, we're able to image faster and store larger blocks of text at a time. And, by using these accelerated learning techniques, we form strong connections between our subconscious right brain function and conscious left brain function, which leads to speed reading. In addition, using these particular exercises and games are great for young children, those with eye-tracking difficulties of any age or learning ability.

The player will have to view more patterns level after level. It's also challenging for adults as our eyes muscles need to be conditioned too to aid speed reading. Having said this, the most effective group is still children as they are still in a growing stage whereby eye muscles are easier to be conditioned and trained compared to adults.
